Occasional Bong
An extreme ambient music project.

Ultra-chilled stuff to fall asleep to - the name reflects what the music essentially consists of. The first full-length release was made with Perl and Csound and more is planned. All will be available, free to stream and no minimum price download, on Bandcamp.

I've only listened to the first track yet, but you're right; it was so relaxing! Would definitely be awesome to fall asleep to. I'm considering buying the album next time I have money and can pay properly for it without it coming out of my ramen budget. :P (Poor student, and all that.) But I really loved it. The sound, seemingly arranged in a random pattern, rather than waiting for the next note, I could just sit back and relax and let it find me. Great stuff! :)

Cheers, MaiaMadness - your comment is much appreciated.

I have chosen the no minimum price download setting very deliberately because I'd far rather that people downloaded and listened to the music - and if they like it, shared it with friends - than otherwise.

If you haven't already done so, please do feel free to put a zero in the price box and download the lot for nothing - if you are still listening to it by "next time you have money", you can always come back and pay then.
